Thread: The Glory Days of Big Green (Old Remington)

I've had , I think, precisely 3 Remington 700's and 2 shotguns

I currently have one 700 and one shotgun
My 1990 BDL shot so well i turned it into a 6.5 06 but also kept the 30 06 chambered barrel
I bought the last of the once a year classic that were made in one calibre each year since 1981, starting with he 7x57 , that was in 2005 and was made in 308.
Beautiful rifle that I never fired and when our bathroom flooded sold to my Neighbour for building funds
I have photos somewhere of both in their original state

The two shotguns were a 870 bought off Lindsay Duncan that arrived on the eve of an Easter trip to Poolburn for rabbit disposal in 1992, by the end of the weekend It had a slab of shells through without a misfire , a proper slab of 500 not a ,later on hunting and fishing coined slab of half that, never gave me any trouble and regrettably now traded in against a Beretta 391 Urika at another store some years later for the same money I paid
The other shotgun is of course the V3 lifetime warranty semi from the previous company that I've previously mentioned, but to be fair it hasn't given me a skerit of trouble and came with 4 chokes.

The third 700 was one of the first Sps's that I bought as it had just come out and was in the shop the same time I was
It probably lasted all of a month , maybe a month and a half and was chambered in the unfortunate 270.
